Special Weather Statement issued February 6 at 9:20PM EST by NWS Pittsburgh PA
A arctic cold front continues to drop across the region this
evening. A band of moderate to heavy snow showers is accompanying
the boundary. Visibilities of one-half mile or less and wind
gusts to 40 MPH are possible in the heavier snow showers. A quick
accumulation of one-half to one inch will be possible, especially
on untreated surfaces. Snow Squall Warnings are already in effect
for portions of this band, and more may be necessary for the
heaviest showers that drop visibility to one- quarter mile or less
in heavy, blowing snow.
Motorists are urged to use caution while driving this evening. If
you encounter heavy snow and very low visibility, slow down and
increase the distance between your car and those that surround
you. Consider delaying travel until the heavy snow showers have
passed.
